We have a primitive health system in that we don't know what the genetic component is of pharmaceutical use. I'm concerned that the use of these for legitimate pain relief will be more driven by the misuse scenarios than finding things that are less addictive or what causes it to have problems for some people. I've used all three common opioids (oxy, hydrocodone, codeine) at fairly high doses plus have had morphine in a hospital setting. It got me through some pain that would have been pretty awful otherwise. I had no recreational interest afterward. Why should I be denied going forward? Is there genetic testing for this outcome? No.
